This is outrageous. I'm all for the memorial. Michelle Fiore has absolutely no business being involved in it.
These are the cop killers.

We explored the case in some depth for this story.

Also, Katharine Mieszkowski explored the story in some depth for this podcast we did to accompany the piece.

Here's Jerad Miller being served a sandwich by Ammon Bundy.
This is a snippet of Melissa Chan's interview with Miller.
You'll notice, of course, that Jerad is toting an AR-15. He was a convicted felon at the time, so this was actually another felony offense on camera.
This was a different interview with Miller, the one in which he threatens violence against law enforcement.

Big news for my readers: It's with some sadness and some excitement that the new year will bring some career changes for me. I'm leaving the regular employ of @splcenter and joining the staff at @dailykos, where I will become their reporter specializing in extremism.
It's exciting because @markos and his team are gearing up to make @dailykos a major news operation, and it will be great to be part of that. Also, I can do some environmental reporting there!

FWIW, I will continue to write for @splcenter, just not as frequently or regularly.
I've been at @splcenter for over five years now, and am very proud of what we managed to achieve there.

If you'd like a retrospective on my work there, check out the Hatewatch YouTube channel sometime. I created all of these videos. It tells a tale.

There's a big problem with this story: Hillborn simply is wrong about the SRKWs' primary food source. Fraser River Chinook are their primary feed only in summer months.

mynorthwest.com/1217574/expert…
In the non-summer months, multiple studies have demonstrated that SRKWs primarily feed on salmon along the Continental Shelf. The No. 1 source of those salmon is the Columbia. SRKWs have been recorded multiple foraging at the mouth of the Columbia in the winter.
Here's a graphic representation of the data:

Ahahahahahaha. I missed this in our exchange last week.

Let's do a compare-and-contrast, shall we, @caitoz? I'll list the pieces I've done attacking Trump and his followers, and then you can do the same, and we'll stack 'em up, OK?
First, there's this. It's 400 pages long.

Then the piece I cowrote with Sarah Posner for Mother Jones. This, BTW, is known as _investigative journalism_ (the real thing) and took us eight months to assemble.

Let's start our #GEMChats this week. The topic of this week is #student #entrepreneurship!

We'll discuss these three factors in the poll options below as well as replies to the poll 🧐🧐🧐 Let's take this forward!
#Students? And #entrepreneurship? Is that even a good combination?

Especially when you read that the famous student entrepreneurs like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg are all dropouts!!!

Can students not only run a #business while studying but also be #successful at it?
Taking a different perspective at this is that while these billionaires are college dropouts, the #idea for the #business all came about when they were in #college! As a young #student, your ideas have a chance at being fresh and can be developed through stringent planning!

Being a white sex worker I suspect is a little like playing in the sandbox of oppressed minority. I can always dust myself off and leave unlike my POC brothers and sisters and my trans brothers and sisters.
And I’d like if I can to use that privilege for good rather than evil. Because I’ve had the benefit of being white, and receiving an excellent education and living on 3 continents growing up. I’ve had more privilege than most white people to be perfectly honest.
I remember when I turned 10 (these were the good old days when kids could visit a pilot in the cock pit) and we flew somewhere and I received an award from United Airlines for circumnavigating the globe twice before my 10th birthday.

So between the Scarlett Johansson mess and the Robert Lepage mess I think maybe we need a quick brief on how acting works, because a lot of people are arguing for artistic freedom and they’re just plain wrong.
For those who aren’t aware, the Robert Lepage show at Montreal International Jazz Fest was canceled following protests because it featured a majority white cast in a self described: "theatrical odyssey based on slave songs,"

And Scarlett Johansson is under fire for her upcoming role as Dante Gill in Rub & Tug. Dante Gill was a trans man and Scar Jo is a cis gendered woman.

Have you ever thought about what it means to be a “conservative”? I don’t even like the term. It certainly doesn’t communicate what I am. I think I’m a mainstream American. I could be wrong. Here’s what I believe.
The Federal government should stick to its knitting. That means provide for the common defense and the welfare of the nation as a whole. It means not meddling in state affairs. It means truly honoring the Tenth Amendment and leaving unenumerated rights to the individual.
I believe the Federal Government shouldn’t even BE in the education business. That’s a local and state concern. I believe about half of the federal government could be abolished and the nation would be better off. I believe the Seventeenth Amendment should be repealed.
